Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Google Chrome versions prior to 126.0.6478.182 Microsoft Edge (affected versions not specified)

Description The issue is related to a synchronization error when using a shared resource in the DevTools of Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge browsers. This could allow a remote attacker to gain unauthorized access to protected information, execute arbitrary code, or cause a denial of service by loading a specially crafted malicious extension or HTML page. An attacker who convinces a user to install a malicious extension can inject scripts or HTML into a privileged page via a crafted Chrome Extension.
